According to the investigating agent, Peguero made 60 online purchases from Saks department store in 2012 using a debit card that was not hers.

Investigators said photos that Peguero posted on Twitter appeared to show the 22-year-old with the same merchandise that had been purchased online.

Peguero was able to get the credit card information after staying with the alleged victim for a few days in May 2012, according to court documents. The alleged victim told investigators that she knew Peguero for two years and considered her a friend. A second alleged victim was described as a co-worker of Peguero’s husband.
